Elvis: That's the Way It Is

On July 31, 1969, in Las Vegas, Nevada, Elvis Presley staged a triumphant return to the concert stage from which he had been absent for almost a decade. His series of concerts broke all box office records and completely reenergized the career of the King of Rock ‘n’ Roll. This feature-length concert film crosses the footlights, revealing the legendary singer as a man preparing for an emotional career comeback, the fans who traveled from all over the world for this history-making event… and the electrifying live performance of the man who gave the world rock ‘n’ roll.

"Off-hand spontaneous moments... really capture just how drenched he was in talent and dedicated to his craft."
Leslie Felperin, The Guardian

This film is part of the Sounds of Summer series.
